I had the same problem on my 800 intruder, it turned out the contacts were bad in the clutch switch. Its an easy fix and easy to check. Disconnect the wires running into the housing for your lights and turn signals and bridge the connection. That will "hotwire" the bike telling it the clutch is pulled in, and try starting it. Chances are thats your problem. A simple $12.00 mostly plastic part... two srews on the under side of the housing will drop the switch out of the clutch assembly, you can take it apart and clean the contacts, but being as your bike like mine has some miles on it. It probably wouldn't hurt to replace it.
Could possibly just be a bad switch, take the switch case apart and verify by using a test light

if nohing at all happens until you keep wiggling the starter switch the switch is faulty (the little button)
